\n \"Spring\n <\/p>\n

\n When Spring rolls around, I like to give myself the opportunity to hit the refresh button get back end things done for my blog. I touched upon this briefly in a recent Instagram post, but I\u2019ve been feeling like I\u2019m in a bit of a rut lately. While I believe that has to do with
\n
\n
\n
\n the time I have in a day
\n <\/a>
\n <\/em>
\n <\/strong>
\n , I also want to see the silver lining. For me, that silver lining is this: Focusing \u201cless\u201d on my content for a minute, and looking at what housekeeping tasks need to be done for The Champagne Edit.\n <\/p>\n

\n <\/h4>\n

\n Since I\u2019m in such a rut \u2014 I feel like I\u2019ve been having writer\u2019s block \u2014 this is a great opportunity to really dive deep into
\n
\n
\n
\n my editorial calendar
\n <\/a>
\n <\/em>
\n <\/strong>
\n . My blog organization skills have come a long way, and I\u2019m really proud of the calendar I\u2019ve put together in 2018. Sometimes I get so caught up in actually writing content, that I forget that I actually need to plan ahead. If I plan ahead, I\u2019ll give myself enough time to think about the content, and ultimately be less stressed at the end of the day.\n <\/p>\n

\n I got a ton of work done on my flights on Thursday and yesterday, so I\u2019m already feeling SO much better!\n <\/p>\n

\n
\n Brush up on the basics
\n <\/i>
\n <\/h4>\n

\n As a blogger, there are A LOT of things I need to worry about. Oh and every day it seems like there\u2019s something new we need to learn. Although it\u2019s stressful at times, there\u2019s nothing better than sitting down and just brush up on the basics. Not really sure why you\u2019re not getting tons of traffic from Pinterest? Take a Pinterest course. Watch YouTube videos. Join a Tailwind Tribe. What about your ABOUT page? Are the statements in your ABOUT page accurate? Or do they reflect what was happening in your life a few years ago? And your SHOP page? I mean, I\u2019ll be the first to admit that I\u2019ve 100% neglected my SHOP page (so I disabled it for now). Instead, I have my
\n
\n
\n
\n Instagram page
\n <\/a>
\n <\/em>
\n <\/strong>
\n where you can shop all of the looks I add to
\n
\n
\n
\n Instagram
\n <\/a>
\n <\/em>
\n <\/strong>
\n .\n <\/p>\n

\n The idea of giving my website a little refresh has crossed my mind, but I honestly just don\u2019t have time at the moment. I do think it\u2019s a great idea though!\n <\/p>\n

\n
\n Purge
\n <\/em>
\n <\/h4>\n

\n If you\u2019re on WordPress, then you\u2019re probably familiar with plugins (literally the greatest gift for bloggers). If we\u2019re being honest, I haven\u2019t taken a look at what plugins are installed on my site in MONTHS. Now that it\u2019s Spring, I think it\u2019s a good idea to go down the list and deactivate\u2026actually, delete\u2026plugins that are no longer useful to you.\n <\/p>\n

\n
\n Update everything
\n <\/em>
\n <\/h4>\n

\n Take a look at your top posts. Now go back and update them. If it\u2019s an outfit, make sure you have new, updated links. Actually, just make sure you\u2019re links in general are all still working and relevant. Although I have outsourced SEO completely, I still like to keep this in mind. Will a link be relevant in a few months, years, etc? I know people who get insane traffic from posts from years ago (I\u2019m pretty sure

\n gets tons of traffic from
\n
\n
\n
\n this One Tree Hill post
\n <\/a>
\n <\/em>
\n <\/strong>
\n ). So just make sure they\u2019re still pretty, up to date, and in line with the format of the posts you\u2019re putting out there now!\n <\/p>\n

\n And there you have it! If you\u2019re a blogger\/influencer\/creative, what are some of your favorite Spring \u201ccleaning\u201d blog organization tips. I\u2019d love to add some other housekeeping tasks to my list.
